Dashlane®

We’ve reviewed other password-keeper apps before, but Dashlane impressed us with one key fact: the company doesn’t have the key to users’ encrypted data. This password manager provides such features as automatic logins, automatic password changes and a security dashboard that tells you how strong or secure your passwords are. Dashlane includes a password generator and unlimited backup on multiple devices. Cost: Free, with premium membership and in-app purchases.

AVG Family Safety®

This is one of the best apps out there that helps protect youngsters from dangers and inappropriate Internet content. AVG Family Safety for iOS is an award-winning parental control app that provides a free mobile web browser that helps to block malware, scams, pornography and more. The app features four age-group pre-sets, or parents can customize from two sets of controls. Cost: Free to existing AVG desktop users; $19.99 per year otherwise.
